How to Have Beautiful Skin

Today is
which is a good date to deal with important Natural Skin Oils for healthy skin ... Most
women shy away from being called “too sensitive.”
But when the subject is skin, they’re all
too willing to wear the S label. According to
the American Academy of Dermatology, nearly
50% of women believe they have sensitive skin,
although most dermatologists report that only
a fraction really do. Skin sensitivity is defined as
skin that’s prone to irritation from products,
weather, or stress – is a real misunderstood
condition. It’s not the same as an allergy.
It means you have a lower tolerance for irritating
ingredients, such as fragrances and dyes. The
twist here is that the more skin reacts, the more
sensitive it becomes. Imagine normal skin having
a natural barrier like Saran Wrap. People with
sensitive skin have a disrupted barrier all the
time. But by identifying what disrupts that barrier
and protecting it with the right moisturizer,
you can develop a thicker skin.

1. Read Labels –
Before applying creams, lotions, or makeup, read
the ingredients list. The fewer ingredients on
the label, the better. All products and formulas
should be free of fragrance, dye, and isopropyl
alcohol (commonly known as rubbing alcohol). And
beware of botanical ingredients and oils. Test
each new product on the side of your neck for
a few days before using it on your face.

2. Cleanse –
Wash you face with a milky, non-foaming liquid
cleanser or a soap-free bar. Do not use a washcloth
or any rough scrubber, which can be too abrasive
for sensitive skin. Rinse face well by splashing
with lukewarm water and pat with a soft towel,
leaving skin slightly damp. There is no need to
use a toner, which generally contains drying and
irritating isopropyl alcohol.

3. Moisturize –
Dab moisturizer onto damp skin in the morning
and night. Look for one that contains ceramides,
fatty acids, or cholesterol, all of which help
form a protective barrier against irritation.
In the morning, when the moisturizer is absorbed,
apply a sunscreen (with an SPF 15 or higher).
It should also contain zinc oxide or titanium
dioxide, which are least likely to cause reactions.

Read Labels

1. Choose the right products for your skin. “Allergy-tested”
means it doesn't have ingredients that cause common
reactions. “Non-comedo genic” means
it won’t clog pores.

2. Read labels on products you intend to buy.
Not everyone with sensitive skin is troubled by
the problems, but the most common irritants,
in order, include fragrance, isopropyl alcohol,
dyes, PABA, lanolin, sorbic acid, formaldehyde
and benzoic acid.

3. Don’t assume that natural products are safe.
Some botanicals such as rosemary, sandalwood,
arnica and essential oils, like jojoba, tea tree
and lavender may irritate skin.

4. Test samples on the neck for several days.
If they don’t irritate you, they’ll
probably be fine for your face.

5. Don’t try an arsenal of new products
at once. Similarly, if skin breaks out, stop using
everything, and reintroduce products one by one.

6. Gently apply to face. Use a creamy, liquid
cleanser or a soap-free bar and rinse with lukewarm
water. Avoid Buf-Pufs and washcloths. Pat with
a towel and leave skin slightly damp.

7. Moisturize with a product for sensitive skin,
or one that contains fatty acids, cholesterol
and ceramides.

8. Every day, be sure to apply a PABA-free sunscreen
that contains titanium dioxide or zinc oxide to
protect skin from the damages of the sun.

Daily Beauty Routine

1.
Wash with a milky, non-foaming liquid.

2. Use a soap-free formula with oatmeal that calms
dry and itchy skin.

3. For day, use a fragrance-free moisturizer containing
a non-irritating sunscreen. At night, smooth on
a non comedo genic formula that helps fortify the
skin’s barrier while you sleep.

4. Dermatologists say that sensitive-skin sufferers
are more likely to avoid using sunscreens, associating
them with past reactions to PABA. Choose one that
won’t aggravate skin.

5. It’s not just what you put on your face.
Hair spray can cause breakouts along the hairline.
Use an allergy-tested and keep the hair off the
face whenever possible.

Special
Products for Extra Skin Care

1. To soothe redness, dermatologists recommend
using a fragrance-free treatment. A dime-size
dab of an over-the-counter 1% hydrocortisone cream
also relieves itching.

2. For dryness on the body, increase resistance
to the environment with a product containing lipids,
which is safe for sensitive types.

3. To treat blemishes, start with an irritant-free
face lotion that minimizes blotches with vitamin
A. Follow with a concealer that won’t aggravate
acne, which does double duty by helping clear
and conceal blemishes.

4. Dermatologists like products that get their
color from iron oxides, which are less likely
to cause reactions. They’re also talc-free,
which means they won’t rob skin of the moisture
it needs.

Special Skin Tips

1. Don’t shower or bathe for
more than 20-minutes, which like dry out your
skin. Use lukewarm water.

2. Don’t start any aggressive treatments
during the winter, when skin is dryer and more
sensitive because of low humidity and indoor heating.
A humidifier helps skin from becoming parched.

3. Grainy or chemical exfoliates can cause breakouts.
Excessive daily scrubbing rubs the sebaceous glands,
which can clog pores. Use a clay or mud mask to
slough off dead cells instead.

the truth. For example, among the many different
